Got to agree that the officials had no bearing on the result at all.

Child even sent up the McMeeken try as a "No Try" and Bentham had about 4 looks when it was clearly a try from the first image.

I thought Childs had a good game and I'm struggling to think of any incident where I thought he had made a ridiculous decision. We were beaten by ourselves and the better team. You cannot afford to make the mistakes we made against the best team in the League and hope to win.

Now if only BJB had intercepted that pass....

I could not disagree more.

Officials were fine last night. Let a bit of handbags go which added to the game IMO

Do any shoulder charges after the ball is gone get punished with a yellow? The flip side is he did well to spot it after the ball had gone. Not sure which blatant swinging arm you are alluding to but, for that reason I cannot comment.

The high score line was about 80% due to the ludicrous decision to put MCB against Webster. The other 20% was cas being able to exploit that absolutely glaring weakness in an otherwise fairly decent Wakefield side on the night.

Thought child was barely noticeable last night. Which is what we all want from any referee.

Personally I'd much rather he let little things go both ways than being overly finicky.

Often I feel that referees make decisions that they don't need to make, thus making their already difficult job harder.

For example, a little bit of handbags and some referees are dying to find out who started it, so they can penalise a team/player. For me, things like that don't need penalising. It's irrelevant to the game. Just take control of the situation, nip it in the bud, warn both captains of their teams conduct and get on with the bloody game.

Couple of pushes and shoves last night but it's a big boys sport, and child did well to just let it play out and not turn it into a drama.

I'd like to know how many people who cast a judgement upon me for daring to have an opinion actually attended the game?

Don't see that matters. You tend to get a better opportunity to review things watching it back on sky in any event. There's been many times I have come away from the game believing we have been hard done to on some key calls only to watch it back on sky and realise that wasn't the case.

If you think they were bad tell us why with some examples, especially as if I recall correctly Bentham only had one decision to make as VR and it was a clear try despite Child's on field decision being "no try"

I went. I don't question your right to an opinion, I just don't agree with it. ie. that's my opinion.

I couldn't get to the game, which must be a first, but got to watch it on TV. Child's wasn't to blame for the defeat, as much as I would like to, but what I will question is the difference between teams of who's interfering in the tackle and whose moving off the mark into the markers, something that is getting far too common in all games especially on Thursday night.

We've won roughly 2 out of 33 games that he's officiated. I'd actually love to know if that stat is true or not but I don't have time to work it out.

85% of stats are made up, the remaining 37% are inaccurate

But that could be down to how we played in those games not how they were reffed. If we got beat 40+ to 12 as has been quite often the case in recent seasons prior to this one, you can't put such defeats down to the officials.

The officials will make mistakes but very rarely will they be the defining factor in the outcome of a game wakey play in
